Empty Bed Blues Lyrics

Woke up this mornin'
With an awful achin' head
Woke up this mornin'
With an awful achin' head
My new man left me
I'm just a bloom in an empty bed

Now, when my bed gets empty
I get to feelin' kind of mean and blue
When my bed gets empty
Get to feelin' awful mean and blue
The springs are gettin' rusty
Sleepin' single like I do

I bought me a coffee grinder
The best one I could find
You know that I bought me a brand new coffee grinder
The best one I could find
So he could grind my coffee
Babe, I got a brand new grind
You gotta try, girl, you gotta try

He was a deep sea diver
With a stroke that could not go wrong
Deep, deep sea, deep sea diver
With a stroke that just could not go wrong
He could touch the bottom
And his wind held out so long

Oh, he boiled my cabbage
And he made it awful hot, mmmm
He boiled it, I got to tell you
That he made it, made it awful hot
But when he slipped the bacon in
He overflowed the pot!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
What a sweet man he was
I went and told my girlfriend Lou
Remember that old rag of a girl named Lou?
Real sweet man
I went and told my girlfriend Lou
That way that girl is, baby
She must have had a piece of it, too

And now when you get good lovin'
Don't you, don't you spread the news
Don't you spread the news
When you get it and it's good, good, good
You really ought not to
You ought not to spread the news
Because those gals will doublecross you and leave you
Those gals will doublecross you, and they do
Those gals will doublecross you
And leave you, leave you, leave you
Leave you with the empty bed blues!
Zah!
